Furnishing Idea is the portal dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, designed to bring together different professionals such as architects, designers, carpenters, furniture makers and manufacturers active in the furniture market who represent the reference point in terms of innovation and quality of the product offered. On the other hand, the portal aims to provide a valid information service focused on products, projects, events and fairs and everything that revolves around the world of components, semi-finished products and accessories for the furniture industry.

 

The portal is divided into different sections where you can explore the different products according to different categories, get in touch with manufacturers, download catalogues to keep up with industry trends and watch videos of interviews with the best professionals and manufacturers.

 

In the articles section you can find all the information about the most innovative product technologies, such as furniture materials, furniture accessories and systems, furniture machinery, furniture hardware, manufactured by manufacturers with a solid experience in the field. In the companies section there is an overview of the manufacturers registered on our portal, divided by product category, where you can contact us for any request. Our portal also has a special catalogues section to allow professionals and operators in the sector to view in a practical way all the catalogues relating to the various products (furniture hardware, upholstery materials, furniture paints, etc.). In addition, to allow easy consultation of the products, our portal has reserved a product section, organized by categories, where you can find out about the technical characteristics, materials and functionality of each product. The video section, on the other hand, presents numerous video interviews given by professionals and manufacturers that report news, insights and informative content on the best technologies in the sector.

 

In addition, to keep you constantly informed you can also consult our Journal section which contains all the Furnishing Idea magazines dedicated to the furniture and furnishing industry, such as the edition dedicated to Sicam or Interzum, two of the most important trade fairs in the sector. The magazines can be consulted from the portal or easily downloadable in pdf format.

 

Thanks to the trust placed in us by many manufacturers, our portal is now recognized both nationally and internationally. In fact, there are already many internationally recognized and established companies in the sector, including the AIPEF group (Italian Flexible Expanded Polyurethanes Companies) which promotes scientific information on the use of flexible polyurethane foam in the sectors in which it is used.

GiardinaGroup: positive results in 2020 despite health emergency difficulties

GiardinaGroup, one of the world's best known brands for painting solutions and surface finishing systems, reports a good 2020, despite the difficulties imposed by the health emergency.  Turnover, which was more or less in line with the previous year's results, reached 20 million euros, thanks to the excellent results obtained in the various markets, primarily the Americas, Eastern Europe, France, Finland, Germany and Indonesia.
A year full of challenges that saw the birth of Destefani, the new company that is part of the group, inheriting world-renowned skills in the field of edge and profile sanders. For this company too, 2020 has been a positive year: it is enough to point out that in the last six months the number of machines produced has quadrupled, confirming the extent to which the market is now interested in purchasing simple technologies capable of considerably reducing manual work.

 

A year 2020 characterised by numerous product innovations


A year that saw intense activity aimed at product innovation: in 2020 we presented the patented system for roller finishing of shaped surfaces, more efficient drying technologies and the new “Dualtech 420“ sprayer for high productivity, a machine that can be equipped to give any customer all the quality and speed he needs.
The “Giampiero Mauri Innovation Centre“, inaugurated only a few weeks before the start of the pandemic, has been reopened, while in the next few weeks work will be completed on the new electrical panel assembly department. Finally, on the commercial front, among others, new collaborations have been defined in China and North America, a step forward in the strengthening of a commercial network that, according to the group's strategies, will be further expanded in the coming months.
